Chapter 348 Still Showing Signs of Life

Emma staggered to her feet before producing something like a small black box from her pocket.

Upon seeing this, Callum dragged Elspeth back a few steps so that they were nearer to the exit.

Sharp-eyed as she was, Elspeth instantly recognized what was in Emma’s hand. “She’s holding a lighter!”

Smelling the gasoline in the air, Callum immediately had his heart in his mouth. “This is bad! She’s probably gonna blow up the gas station!”

After exchanging a brief look, the couple turned around and started running outside with all their might.

“Do you guys really think you can run away from here?!” Seeing their intention to run away, Emma unhurriedly took out a piece of paper and set it alight behind them before placing it on the pile of firewood that had been placed there in advance. As a result, the fire spread quickly, gradually setting many items surrounding them on fire!

As if fearing that the fire wasn’t big enough, Emma even dug out a discarded canister of gasoline and spilled it onto the firewood, causing flames to surge up everywhere.

Kaboom! There was the sound of a loud explosion, followed by the sounds of burning fire and even louder explosions.

The flames were creeping up Emma’s body from the hem of her dress. As the pain of being burned gradually overwhelmed her, she crouched down and laughed in pain while watching the two black little spots blur before her. The two of them can’t run away from this! It hurts so much, though… My heart wouldn’t ache anymore as long as my body hurts enough. She broke into a cold sweat in pain, but there was a hint of satisfaction and relief in her eyes.

People would always recall something in their dying moments, and she was no exception. She first recalled Ginna, who had always been spoiled by their parents because of her poor health. Ginna once looked at her condescendingly, saying, “You’re no match for me! You’ll never be a match for me in your life!”

She also recalled her parents, who were partial to Ginna. They said, “Your sister is in poor health, so you should be nice to her and give her whatever she wants. And besides, you’re inferior to your ill sister. She does better than you in exams and is more likable than you. She even won an international award for ballet, whereas you’re just a little-known celebrity…”

Callum was the last person she recalled. She remembered the bright young man she had met at university, who was dressed in simple sportswear on that fateful day. When he jogged past her and saw her crouching on the bench and bawling her eyes out, he said softly, “There’s nothing that could never be overcome. Life is toughening us up so that we can live a smoother life.”
